Burrow's dad slams honours after Sinfield snubbed for knighthood

Geoff Burrow led calls for his late son's friend and former rugby league team-mate to be made "Sir Kevin" in recognition of his mammoth fundraising feats for motor neurone disease research.

Kevin, 44, and fellow Leeds Rhinos legend Rob raised £16million together.

Rob died from MND in June at the age of 41 and last month Kevin added another £1.5million, double the £777,777 target, by completing seven ultra marathons in seven days.

He was awarded a CBE last year and Whitehall sources say another honour is not traditionally awarded within three years.
